...worship with men's hands as though he needed anything...
...seeing giveth to all life and breath in all things...
...and hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth...
...and hath determined the times before appointed and the bounds of their habitation.
The Bible says he has made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on the face of the earth...
It doesn't matter what your skin color is...
It doesn't matter what country you're from.
It doesn't matter where you're born.
What matters is you believe on Christ and you're serving God. That's what the Bible teaches. Go to Romans 2, Romans 2.
And
also from this article, John Taylor taught, this is a high-level Mormon, taught on multiple occasions that the reason that black people
parentheses those with the curse of Cain, remember I talked about recently how some Americans said, hey, it's a curse of Cain, black skin.
That's what the Mormons taught.
Were allowed to survive the flood. This is the reason why the black people were allowed to survive the flood.
Was so that the devil could be properly represented on earth through the children of Ham and his wife, Egyptus.
So the reason why all black people weren't wiped out in the flood is because the devil had to be represented.
This is what the Mormon Church taught. And it says, the next president, Wilford Woodruff,
also affirmed that millions of people have Cain's mark of blackness,
drawing a parallel to modern Native Americans' curse of redness, which is something they also taught,
none of these ideas are accepted as official doctrine of the church. And this is how they get out of this.
They're like, yeah, you know that our old president taught that. It wasn't official doctrine though. Yes,
he taught that black people are inferior, but that wasn't an official position.
That's just what he said.
But that's also in your holy books that it teaches that, that it says that they said that.
Don't try to distance yourself now, and that's how you marketed yourself in the past.
Let me just read you a few more from this article.
In 1931, Apostle Joseph Fielding Smith, which is a direct descendant of Joseph Smith,
wrote on the same topic in The Weight of Perfection, short discourses on gospel themes,
generating controversy within and without Mormonism. So this is part of the gospel themes, you know, the color of your skin.
For evidence that modern blacks were descended from Cain,
Smith wrote that it is generally believed that Cain's curse was continued through his descendants and through Ham's wife.
Smith states that some of the brethren who are associates with Joseph Smith have declared that he taught this doctrine.
You say, Brother Stuckey, do they say this today? Well, in
1978, the church ended the ban on priesthood
against black people because the ancient curse was no longer in effect.
Like, how can you just get rid of the curse? It doesn't make any sense.
But then in 1978, okay,
it's really not popular anymore to say that white people are better than black people because the percentage of black people is growing in
our country. Let's just get rid of the ban and say that, you know, it's like it never happened, right?
It's like actually now black people are equal with white people.
Well, they've always been equal with white people. The Bible says in Romans 2 verse 11,
For there is no respect of persons with God. God does not look at some people as being better than other people
simply by where they're from. And look, it's not just Mormonism that does this sort of thing.
I mean, obviously that church over there is the exact same. It's just in a different country.
Just a slightly different flavor. There's a lot of false religions that have this idea,
well, this is the specific area where you can serve God and this area is better than other areas or God loves this area
more than other areas. I mean, this is garbage. This is not what the Bible teaches. From this article it says,
Early church leaders believe that souls of everyone in the celestial kingdom,
which is the highest degree of heaven, because they have levels of heaven,
the souls of everyone in the celestial kingdom would be white in eternity, is the quote. White in eternity
if, you know, you make it to the highest level of heaven.
They often equated whiteness with righteousness, whiteness with rightness, and taught that originally God made his children white in his own image.
Boy, that's a change from what the Bible says. I don't remember the part God made them white in his own image in the book of Genesis.
A 1959 report by the US Commission on Civil Rights found that most Utah Mormons believe by righteous living
that dark-skinned races may again become white and delightsome.
Conversely, the church also taught that white apostates would have their skins darkened when they abandoned the faith.
And so what they actually taught was that if you're at a country, like let's say in Africa,
where everybody's got naturally dark skin and
Mormonism starts taking center in that country, people's skin color will start to become
lighter. Or if you get saved,
don't worry. I mean, it's like, don't worry, your pre-existent spirit was so evil. You start reading the Bible and all of a sudden
you're going to start to be white.
But
beware people, because if you leave the church and
you start sinning, your skin is going to start to get darker and it's going to start to get black.
Right? That's what, I mean, talk about very little understanding and knowledge of just basic science and just basic things.
You know, but this is what the Mormon Church taught.
I mean, you can see that they have a dark history when it comes to racism,
sexual scandals, illegal practices of money, the character of Joseph Smith. Now, let me just close by this, though.
Obviously, we know this is a false religion. They don't believe the gospel. They're not saved.
There's a lot of things you have to cover when you talk to them. If you're trying to get a Mormon saved, though,
there's no point in bringing up the racism. It doesn't do anything for their salvation.
Right? And honestly, in modern days, most Mormons would probably shy away from all the racism and say,
well, we don't agree with that.
Right? And so if you're trying to get a Mormon saved, though,
you know, there's a lot of interesting information that I covered, but it's not like quoting this stuff to a Mormon's going to get
them saved. If they were here in these sermons and they listened to these sermons, they would not get saved from that.
They're not going to get saved by realizing that they used to be, you know, racist religion and their old leader was a
sorcerer and everything. They'd probably just try to explain it in a way,
but if you run into a Mormon out soul-winning and they're willing to listen to the gospel, you say,
Brother Stuckey, what do I have to cover? You cover the gospel.
You cover the fact that salvation is by grace through faith, and you explain what that actually means since they teach something different.
You cover the nature of God. You cover the fact that hell is a literal place of fire.
You cover the things that they do not believe in that they must
overcome in order to be saved because they're wrong on a lot of things.
You don't have to cover all of these things, but it's amazing when you look at these cults.
These cults are wrong on so many things.
They have so many scandals. I mean, this religion,
I do not understand how Mormonism survived as a religion, and yet it's thriving in
2022 in terms of number of people and money, and now they are reaching other countries.
There are a lot of Filipinos that are Mormons. And honestly, when I talk to them,
I'd be tempted to say, do you realize all the racism and that they say white is better
than anybody else? But honestly, that's kind of a waste of time because they're not going to get saved by covering that stuff.
They get they get saved by, you know, I'm not ashamed of the gospel of Christ,
for it is the power of God and the salvation to everyone that believeth
to the Jew first and also the Greek and also to the Mormon,
Jehovah's Witness or whatever religion. Let's close the word of prayer.
Your Heavenly Father, thank you for allowing us to be here today
and just getting to see these verses and what the Bible teaches about this and help us
just to get opportunities to be able to preach the gospel to the Mormons
that are living in the Philippines.
And we ask you to help open up their heart, help them be receptive to the gospel of God.
We pray this in Jesus name. Amen.
First signs are ready, sing.
